Featured Article
Jerry Seinfeld is the central character of Seinfeld, named after, based on, and played by comedian Jerry Seinfeld.
Jerry's main friends are George Costanza, Cosmo Kramer and his ex-girlfriend Elaine Benes. Jerry (though not without exceptions) typically represents the voice of reason amidst George, Elaine, and Kramer's antics, and can be seen as the focal point of the foursome's relationship. Jerry is somewhat of an eternal optimist, as he rarely runs into major personal problems. Jerry is the only main character on the show to maintain the same career throughout the series. Considering his job as a comedian, he is the most observational character, usually sarcastically commenting on his friends' quirky habits, almost essentially the "New York Jew"-type character. He seems to have a new girlfriend every week, but the relationships usually end for fairly superficial reasons. He is also an almost obsessive compulsive neat freak; he once threw out a belt because it had touched a urinal, and once commented on finding out his toilet brush had been placed in the toilet that, "I can replace that."

ASHBURN, Va. (AP) All the medical terms associated with Robert Griffin III's knee injury can be boiled down to one simple message: It's not too bad.
Beyond that, there are still some very important unknowns.
The NFL's top-rated quarterback might or might not play Sunday when the Washington Redskins visit the Cleveland Browns. Coach Mike Shanahan, knowing full well that it makes the other team work extra to prepare for two quarterbacks, will no doubt wait as long as possible to publicly commit one way or the other to Griffin or fellow rookie Kirk Cousins.
``Both of them will have a game plan,'' Shanahan said Monday.
The interior of Griffin's right knee was the subject of intense scrutiny during Shanahan's weekly news conference, when it was shown that an injury to a franchise player like RG3 can flummox even a seasoned coach. Shanahan initially said Griffin had a ``strain of the ACL'' before later correcting the diagnosis to a sprained LCL, with the coach stepping away from the podium to demonstrate the location of the ligament involved.
The upshot: Griffin has a mild, or Grade 1, sprain of the lateral collateral ligament located on the outside of the knee, caused when he was hit by defensive tackle Haloti Ngata at the end of a 13-yard scramble late in regulation of the 31-28 overtime win over the Baltimore Ravens.
``When I looked at it on film,'' Shanahan said, ``I thought it would be worse than it was.''
The LCL is one of four ligaments in the knee. A Grade 1 sprain typically means the ligament is stretched or has some minor tears and usually doesn't require surgery. Griffin will get multiple treatments daily and will probably have to wear a brace for several weeks.
The next major benchmark is whether Griffin will able to take part when practice resumes on Wednesday.
``You're hoping with rehab it gets better very quickly,'' Shanahan said. ``But we don't know for sure. ... He's definitely not ruled out for the Cleveland game.''
Griffin's father, Robert Griffin Jr., said in a text message that his son was ``feeling good'' and that ``we will know by Thursday'' whether Griffin III will be able to suit up against the Browns.
The most severe knee injury usually associated with sports is a season-ending torn ACL, the anterior cruciate ligament. Griffin tore the ACL in his right knee while playing for Baylor in 2009, but Shanahan said Griffin's reconstructed ACL ``looks great'' and that there's ``no problem there.''
``He's doing good. He's in high spirits,'' left tackle Trent Williams said after speaking with Griffin on Monday. ``It was a pretty nasty, awkward hit, and for him not to be seriously injured is a blessing.''
No. 2 overall pick Griffin has become a phenomenon in his debut NFL season, leading the Redskins - a team that went 5-11 last year - to four straight victories to put the record at 7-6, one game behind the first-place New York Giants in the NFC East. His performance Sunday put him atop the league with a 104.2 passer rating, better than Peyton Manning, Aaron Rodgers, Tom Brady and everyone else.
Fourth-rounder Cousins might not be much of a drop-off, especially after his super-sub performance against the Ravens. When Griffin left for one play, Cousins converted a third-and-6 with a pass to Pierre Garcon that drew a pass interference penalty on Chris Johnson.
When Griffin left for good later in the drive, Cousins completed two passes in two plays, and his nice pump fake allowed Garcon to get open for an 11-yard touchdown with 29 seconds left in regulation.
Cousins then did his best RG3 impersonation, running the quarterback draw on the 2-point conversion to tie the game.
``You're running the scout team the majority of the time, and you're expected to go in there and perform,'' Shanahan said. ``So there's a lot of pressure on people. Some people can handle it; other people can't. But when you prepare yourself like he has, it didn't surprise me that he was flawless in what he did.''
Shanahan defended the decision to have Griffin return to the game for four plays after the injury, saying he left the decision in the hands of Dr. James Andrews, the renowned sports physician who is on the sidelines for most Redskins games.
``He's the one that gives me that information,'' Shanahan said. ``It's way over my head.''

When I start NB up, I get the error (see below) every time but if I disable the remote connection in settings, the error no longer appears at startup. Any ideas?
[20:31:56] ERROR - Error: Unable to bind Remote control Socket
I'm running NB 6.42 in wine/cxoffice on Mac. This will be very similar to the Linux setup. My remote connection via iPhone is dead in the water.
Many thanks!

Royal Santana - Inducted into the American Quarter Horse Hall of Fame in 2000
In a world where youth is admired, Royal Santana defied all odds when he won his first AQHA world title at 20.
Foaled in May 1971, Royal Santana was born famous. He was the son of Peppy San, who was an AQHA Champion, a two-time National Cutting Horse Association champion and a member of the AQHA and NCHA halls of fame. Royal Santana was out of Royal Smart by Royal King.
From C. N. "Chunky" Woodward's vast Douglas Lake Cattle Co. ranch in British Columbia, Royal Santana was sent into training as a 2-year-old to Matlock Rose in Texas. Rose had trained and shown Peppy San to the 1967 NCHA World Championships.
Frank Merrill bought Royal Santana in 1985 and Windward Stud became a virtual "Fountain of Youth" for the horse. Merrill's wife, Robin, showed Santana to the high-point cutting title and a sixth-place finish in amateur cutting at the AQHA World Championship Show in 1986. The Merrill's' daughter, McKenzie rode the gelding to win the youth high-point cutting title and sixth at the AQHA Youth World Championship Show in 1988. In 1990, at age 19, Royal Santana took McKenzie to win both the high-point and the AQHYA World Championship in cutting.
But an AQHA World Championship still eluded Royal Santana. In 1991, Merrill decided to give it one last try.
After watching his wife score a 218 on Barb Olena, Merrill looked to post a big score. Merrill cut cows that would challenge Santana, the last a chargy Brahman-cross that caused the gelding to dig deep. When the dust settled, their 220.5 lasted through 13 more runs for the amateur cutting world championship.
Royal Santana went on to place three more times in youth high-point cutting competition and once more in amateur cutting. In his lifetime, he won more than $171,500 and spawned a legion of memories.
Royal Santana died in 1995, and was buried next to the arena named in his honor at Merrill's Windward Stud. He was inducted into the American Quarter Horse Hall of Fame in 2000.

And now the Date Night press tour begins. Date Night opens April 9th. Duana and I talked about this while she was getting ready for work this morning, lacing up her Alexander Wangs while I tried not to yell at her because I'm jealous and petty.
I saw these photos of Tina Fey and Steve Carell in Berlin at the photo call and I said "I don't want Date Night to suck, the trailer looks good, please don't let it suck" and she said "I'm worried. See, there are things in the trailer that worry me". So of course I watched the trailer all over again and while I don't particularly like the "mother-in-law" or the Mark Wahlberg "instruments" lines, at the same time, it's a comedy, it's for the masses, and you can't get too highbrow for the People or they will deem it elitist and liberal and reject.
Anyway, check out Tina in her skinny jeans and her big hair. She looks great. Meanwhile, how much do you love that some other bitches will bust out their designer-wear for these events and Carell shows up in what looks like a fleece?

The High Place
Award-winning author, narrator, and screenwriter Neil Gaiman personally selected this book, and, using the tools of the Audiobook Creation Exchange (ACX), cast the narrator and produced this work for his audiobook label, Neil Gaiman Presents.
A few words from Neil on The High Place: THE HIGH PLACE: A COMEDY OF DISENCHANTMENT is what happens to the story of Sleeping Beauty when told as a cautionary – yet somehow rollicking – fairy tale. Our hero – if hero we may call a man who's just murdered each of his four wives – is the elegant and aristocratic Florian de Puysange….Florian is everyone's dream of an amoral protagonist, all elegance and flourish, witty and urbane, a complete cad who acts on every pleasure it occurs to him to desire...and he gets away with it. UNTIL it all comes due.
In the sulphurous The High Place, the amoral hero Florian enters the sleeping-beauty story and (unlike Jurgen with Helen) does not draw back at the sight of excessive beauty. Complications ensue: Beauty is realistically diminished during pregnancy, the first-born child is forfeit to Satan under the pact that guaranteed Florain's success, and an irascible saint is eager to call down holy fire on transgressors. Florian treads close to damnation and is saved only when Satan and the angel Michael conspire to let recent events become, again, a dream: he has a rare second chance and learns better.

Too fast to be enjoyable
While I enjoyed the story itself (even if it was a little verbose in places), my main issue with this recording was that the pace of the narration was far too fast. I had to concentrate hard to follow along, and even a second of inattention was punished. Several times I found myself miles behind the action and it took quite a while to catch up with the story again.
I think it was for that reason I found myself getting a little irritated by the story and was quite glad when it was finished. The pace may not be an issue for other listeners, but I think I would prefer this story in print.

You can use the default Oracle Database features to configure security in the following areas for your Oracle Database installation:
User accounts. When you create user accounts, you can secure them in a variety of ways. You can also create password profiles to better secure password policies for your site. Chapter 2, "Managing Security for Oracle Database Users" describes how to manage user accounts.
Authentication methods. Oracle Database provides several ways to configure authentication for users and database administrators. For example, you can authenticate users on the database level, from the operating system, and on the network. Chapter 3, "Configuring Authentication" describes how authentication in Oracle Database works.
Privileges and roles. You can use privileges and roles to restrict user access to data. Chapter 4, "Configuring Privilege and Role Authorization" describes how to create and manage user privileges and roles.
Application security. The first step to creating a database application is to ensure that it is properly secure. Chapter 5, "Managing Security for Application Developers" discusses how to incorporate application security into your application security policies.
User session information using application context. An application context is a name-value pair that holds the session information. You can retrieve session information about a user, such as the user name or terminal, and restrict database and application access for that user based on this information. Chapter 6, "Using Application Contexts to Retrieve User Information" describes how to use application context.
Database access on the row and column level using Virtual Private Database. A Virtual Private Database policy dynamically imbeds a
WHERE predicate into SQL statements the user issues. Chapter 7, "Using Oracle Virtual Private Database to Control Data Access" describes how to create and manage Virtual Private Database policies.
Encryption. You can disguise data on the network to prevent unauthorized access to that data. Chapter 8, "Developing Applications Using the Data Encryption API" explains how to use the
DBMS_CRYPTO and PL/SQL package to encrypt data.
Auditing database activities. You can audit database activities in general terms, such as auditing all SQL statements, SQL privileges, schema objects, and network activity. Or, you can audit in a granular manner, such as when the IP addresses from outside the corporate network is being used. Chapter 9, "Verifying Security Access with Auditing" describes how to configure database auditing.
In addition, Chapter 10, "Keeping Your Oracle Database Secure" provides guidelines that you should follow when you secure your Oracle Database installation.
In addition to the security resources described in this guide, Oracle Database provides the following database security products:
Advanced security features. See Oracle Database Advanced Security Administrator's Guide for information about advanced features such as transparent data encryption, wallet management, network encryption, and the RADIUS, Kerberos, Secure Sockets Layer authentication.
Oracle Label Security. Oracle Label Security secures database tables at the row level, allowing you to filter user access to row data based on privileges. See Oracle Label Security Administrator's Guide for detailed information about Oracle Label Security.
Oracle Database Vault. Oracle Database Vault provides fine-grained access control to your sensitive data, including protecting data from privileged users. Oracle Database Vault Administrator's Guide describes how to use Oracle Database Vault.
Oracle Audit Vault. Oracle Audit Vault collects database audit data from sources such as Oracle Database audit trail tables, database operating system audit files, and database redo logs. Using Oracle Audit Vault, you can create alerts on suspicious activities, and create reports on the history of privileged user changes, schema modifications, and even data-level access.

For those of you who want to install custom ROM using TWRP recovery, here's a fail-proof method that will make your new custom ROM boot every time (in my experience).
The only difference between the usual method and this one is that we will also be formatting /system partition, which if not formatted sometimes causes bootloops when installing new custom ROM.
This method will work on any rooted Android smartphone or tablet with TWRP recovery installed. And also will work on all types of custom ROMs including CyanogenMod (CM11, CM12), TouchWiz, Sense, etc…etc…
Before we begin, make sure you have TWRP recovery installed (if you don't, see our guide on how to install TWRP recovery using Flashify)
Step 1. First download the ROM zip files you need. Usually there's one or two zip files. You can download these files straight onto your phone or download them to your computer first then copy them over to your phone. (Also you can use an OTG cable and USB flash drive so it won't take up space on your phone/tablet.)
For AOSP ROMs like CyanogenMod CM11 or CM12, you will need an additional Gapps zip file.
Once files are downloaded, make sure they are not corrupt. You can do this by opening the ROM zip files with ES File Explorer app. If you can see the contents of the zip file fine, you are good to go. Otherwise, your files are bad so re-downloaded them!
Step 2. If you have a rooted Android device, use Quick Boot app to reboot into recovery.
If you don't have a rooted phone or maybe you are stuck in bootloop, manually boot into your recovery.
(for Samsung Galaxy devices, power off the phone and hold down Volume Up + Center Home + Power for 5 seconds, for HTC/Nexus devices, power off the phone and hold down Volume Down + Power buttons then select recovery). If you have another device, try googling on how to enter recovery mode.
Step 3. Once in TWRP recovery, choose "Wipe".
*Note – You can also "dirty flash" without wiping. This is recommended for installing stock ROMs if you are installing stock ROM on top of another stock ROM. If that's the case, skip this step.
Choose "Advanced Wipe".
Select Dalvik Cache, System, Data and Cache then swipe to wipe. By wiping the system partition here, we will make sure our file structure is perfectly clean before installing a new ROM.
Step 4. Choose "Install" from main menu.
Choose "Storage".
Choose the storage you have your ROM zip files in. Here you can choose internal storage, micro SDcard, or USB storage (if using OTG USB Flash).
Browse your file system and find the ROM zip file. In this example, I am installing CM12 ROM so I will be choosing the ROM zip file below beginning with "cm-12".
Swipe to install ROM.
If you are installing an AOSP ROM like CM12 like I am doing here, repeat this step and also install the Gapps zip file. Otherwise go to next step.
Step 5. Reboot and you should see your new ROM boot up.
Step 6. If you get to the Welcome screen or your phone boots, congratulations! You have successfully installed a new custom ROM onto your Android smartphone/tablet!

U R genius man .. Thumbs up..
Boom shakalaka :p
U r genius max.. Boomshakalaka.. :p
It did not worked, i did exactly what you said now I dont have a ROM, my phone stays in the powered by android screen. Hope you can help
Hey Jose, i experienced the same problem a few months back. finding the stock rom of your device might help your case. just follow these steps:
Boot into twrp, wipe, advanced wipe,
-Dalvik Cache
Then go to install, then flash the stock rom.
it should boot up if you flash the right rom. Also make sure the file is not corrupted.
Also, some devices are picky and will only mount specific roms compatible with their build number, you can do more research about your device at google.
(I dont know if this is right, but one thing I do is extract the rom to my computer, if it gets extracted all the way, then you can bet that its not corrupted.)
I guess thats all, and having a recent backup of your system is REALLY helpful, as it will be easier to restore the rom without going through the trouble of finding it on the internet.
Hope that helps, anything else, email me
Peace~~ ^0^
Just Perfect. Thanks man

My galaxy s4 mini duos (i9292) is stuck on bootloop. Tried to flash TWRP/Phliz/CWM but couldn't get it done. When I try to Wipe cache and Wipe/Factory reset it keep showing me this :
Are you using Odin? I was stuck on your screen before doing that.
I did use Odin to flash with a firmware taken from sammobile but still the same, in odion says that passed but it wont boot again. A friend of mine told me that I had deleted some system apps and I remember having done that, i deleted some system apps like ; talkback, flipboard and so on, I did delete them using Titanium Backup pro.
I do have a problem in using TWRP wiping some other rom, since my tablet do not have external storage, the only connection i have is USB (it right now cannot be boot up); however my pc cannot recognize it, so what can i do?
Like your excellent "How Tos" but hate the "take a survey" Popup that won't let me view your fine work.
Sounds like a real like / hate situation huh?
I've hated any and all popups for 15 years and that goes for any site, it gets boycotted, and avoided like the blackout plague like the spamups that they are.

Let $\cal{M}$ be a finite collection of two-sided mirrors,
each an open unit-length segment in $\mathbb{R^2}$,
and such that the segments when closed are disjoint.
A ray of light that reflects off the mirrors determines
a mirror sequence or mirror string
consisting of the mirror indices in order of reflection.
Obviously no mirror string can contain $a a$ as a substring.
I am wondering if mirror sequences may be characterized
by a list of forbidden substrings.
For example, consider the special case of parallel mirrors, none collinear. Orient them all vertical, and label them sorted left to right. Then for labels $a < b < c$, these are forbidden substrings:
$$ b * a c * b $$ $$ b * c a * b $$
with $*$ being any string (including the empty string). So in the above example, after 415 appears, 4 cannot occur again. Perhaps these are the only forbidden patterns for parallel mirrors?
Edit. Apologies for not initially phrasing a clear question.
Q. Are there strings of mirror indices that cannot be realized by some ray reflecting among some collection $\cal{M}$ of mirrors? Is there a list of such strings that characterize all the realizable sequences?
In contrast to the parallel-mirrors example above, I am primarily interested in mirrors without constraints on their placements or orientations.
Perhaps analogous sequences have been studied before, maybe in another context? Pointers appreciated!

President Barack Obama spent much of the campaign touting his "all of the above" energy strategy -- a proposal which, to hear him explain it, will reduce America's reliance on foreign oil, save families and businesses money at the pump and position the United States as the global leader in clean energy.
Sounds great, right? Almost too good to be true?
That's because it is.
Obama's "all of the above" energy scheme will actually pump billions of tax dollars into economically unjustifiable green energy schemes, undermine America's coal industry, limit domestic energy exploration, and raise the cost of products and services through a series of mandates and taxes.
Worst of all, Obama's plan to tinker with fuel mileage regulations would actually kill thousands of Americans.
In order to reduce the use of fossil fuels, the president has pledged to increase the handouts and tax breaks available for renewable energy. Obama was apparently so pleased with the stimulus money spent subsidizing companies like Solyndra, that he believes billions of additional tax dollars should go towards wasteful and ineffective green boondoggles.
While Obama's energy plan is busy subsidizing green energy, it damages traditional energy suppliers by slashing the number of acres available for oil-shale mining by more than 75 percent and calling for a $27 billion tax hike on oil and gas over the next decade.
One of the central tenets of Obama's energy plan is to push out American coal production. Reducing the amount of coal available for power plants will substantially increase American's electric bills. The federal government's own studies estimate that recently adopted coal regulations pushed by Obama will cost American families $10 billion per year -- and that's only the beginning of higher electricity expenses if Obama has his way.
In August, the Obama Administration invented a new set of fuel efficiency standards, forcing auto makers to produce cars and light trucks that get 54.5 mpg by 2025. The stricter standards will increase the price of a new car by about $3,000, according to federal estimates.
Not only would this fuel economy mandate cost drivers money, it would cost thousands of American lives.
Since the simplest way to improve a vehicle's mileage is to reduce its weight, the new fuel efficiency standards will force drivers into "small, underpowered death traps," according to the National Center for Policy Analysis.
A study by Harvard University and the Brookings Institution found that, on average, for every 100 pounds shaved off new cars to meet fuel efficiency standards, approximately 3,000 additional people are killed each year. USA Today calculated that size and weight reductions of passenger vehicles required to meet current fuel efficiency standards resulted in more than 46,000 deaths. The Obama Administration's new fuel efficiency standards almost double the current standards. It's horrifying to consider the increased number of deaths that will result if Obama has his way and the new standards are implemented.
Obama's assault on America's energy producers and taxpayers is nothing new.
Despite pledging to work to extend the Keystone XL Pipeline, Obama rejected a permit to continue work on the project. The pipeline, which would transport oil from Canada, Montana and Oklahoma to refineries, distribution hubs and storage facilities, would expand America's supply of affordable, available oil. It would also result it 130,000 jobs -- including 20,000 union jobs -- according to the Houston Chronicle, while posing little environmental risk.
Additionally, the Obama Administration continues to resist efforts to open new areas to responsible oil exploration and issues fewer drilling permits than the historical average.
If Obama truly cared about addressing the future of America's energy needs, his "all of the above" energy plan would look a lot different. Actually, it would look more like his Republican challenger's. Romney's energy plan would've opened up more federal land for energy production, ended subsidies for windmills and other green energy sources, sped up the permitting process for drilling and encouraged finishing the Keystone XL Pipeline.
So, in the end, does President Obama's energy scheme mean fewer available fuel sources, more taxpayer subsidies to green energy companies, more dangerous vehicles, more regulations on successful energy providers or an even higher national debt? The answer, appropriately, is "all of the above." And this is an answer that Americans can't afford to accept for another four years.

Just want to share something from my experience.
Missing "metgrid" and "geogrid":
When this happened, you might want to have a WRFV3 directory within the same location with where your WPS directory is located. This WRFV3 directory should already have the executables from a successful compile with SERIAL configuration setting using the same compiler you use for WPS (I use ifort in my case).
You shouldn't change the directory name and keep it as "WRFV3". If you have another WRF compiled in that directory (using other configuration), you can rename the other WRF(s) (such as WRF_SMPar or WRF_DMPar) but leave the WRF directory that was compiled in the serial mode as "WRFV3".
I remember saw an explanation about this somewhere, that the directory name doesn't matter and other things could be done by changing some environment variables and modifying some files in the WPS. Then again, this was the simplest step for me.
Missing "ungrib":
Before compiling, you might want to check the configure.wps file and check the following lines:
- Code: Select all
COMPRESSION_LIBS = -L/path/to/jasper/directory/lib -ljasper -lpng -lz
COMPRESSION_INC = -I/path/to/jasper/directory/include/jasper
- Code: Select all
COMPRESSION_LIBS = -L/path/to/jasper/directory/lib -L/path/to/libpng/directory/lib -L/path/to/zlib/directory/lib -ljasper -lpng -lz
COMPRESSION_INC = -I/path/to/jasper/directory/include -I/path/to/libpng/directory/include -I/path/to/zlib/directory/include
Those two methods worked for me every time, since v3.4 until now (v3.9). Hopefully, this could be of help should anybody somehow has the similar situation.

I just found one of my tunes here, by a Google search on its title. Clicking on Google's link got it displayed.
That wasn't what I wanted to happen, for two reasons.
One is that this site indexed only a legacy version - in my file http://www.campin.me.uk/Music/Modes.abc , which is long superseded by a version split into many linked files, at http://www.campin.me.uk/Music/Modes/ . There is a lot more stuff in the newer version and it's better edited. How come it hasn't been noticed?
The other problem is that the tune was displayed in isolation. I'm happy with that for much of my stuff, but for others (the modes stuff included) I want people to see the tunes in context, and ONLY in context. When John Chambers's tune finder was the only game in town I could do that - if you set the X field to zero, his software will (or at least used to) download only the complete file the tune occurs in. So for some of my files, every tune has X:0. They're that way for a reason.
This site does not make the same distinction between what it indexes and what it will display.
How about it?
(I am just about to delete the older file; I hope that kills the version here).

(The Root) — As the first African American elected president of the Southern Baptist Convention, the Rev. Fred Luter Jr. will travel throughout the country, preaching from some of the nation's most storied pulpits. But on Sunday he was home with his local congregation at the Franklin Avenue Baptist Church in New Orleans.
Three blocks beyond the city's 9th Ward, the 5,000-member church at the corner of Franklin Avenue and North Dorgenois is a mixture of ages, cultures and races. A few women were adorned in fancy hats, and many of the men in Sunday suits. Others were more casual, but nearly everyone greeted people with a smile or a handshake.
By 7:15 a.m. the 2,000 or so seats in the huge sanctuary and balcony were packed for a worship service beginning at 7:30 at one of the largest Southern Baptist congregations in the city.
Luter, a New Orleans native, was a street preacher before accepting the pastorate at Franklin Avenue. However, his move to the national stage is historic and controversial at the same time. His election to lead the SBC, the largest Protestant denomination in America, is a clear appeal to members beyond its predominantly white base.
The group was birthed before the Civil War after a split with Northern Baptists over slavery and was known to support segregation for many years. In the mid-1990s, Luter was part of an effort to reform its racist image that has led to its nonwhite membership growing from 5 percent in 1990 to 20 percent in 2010.
On the other hand, its leaders have condemned same-sex marriage, passing a resolution that opposes its consideration as a civil rights issue. Last week Luter fell in line with the group's public stance. "I'm a man of the Book. I believe in the word of God," Luter said in a CNN interview. "I believe in the Bible. God has specifically spoken about marriage. Marriage is between a man and a woman. That's biblical."
Still, those who know him say he's still the same Fred, with a huge smile, a warm spot for Christians and an evangelistic spirit for those he seeks to convert.
On Sunday he entered the sanctuary just after the choir began singing, quietly greeting people with hugs, giving handshakes to the men and kissing a few senior women seated on the burgundy-cushioned, oak-trimmed pews.
The first time he stepped up to the pulpit, all the folks in the sanctuary rose to their feet, offering a sustained applause. Luter thanked them but was quick to explain that his election was not about him but about God.
"Don't make me cry," he said. "I've cried a lot already."
In the past week, lots of national media attention has been heaped on Luter, but on Sunday he told his congregation, "I am still the same."
The Rev. Marvin Turner, a New Orleans pastor who attended the service Sunday to show support, said he has known Luter for 30 years. "He's humble. This won't go to his head," Turner said. "He's a child of God, and that's all he wants to be."
Vernetta Ballard, 53, has been a member at Franklin Avenue for 17 years. Like most church members, she was displaced in 2005 by Hurricane Katrina and lived for two years in Alabama. Two years later she returned to the Crescent City — and to her church, which also had to rise from the ruins of the floodwaters.
On Sunday she had white embroidered commemorative cloths that had been sewn by the church's sewing ministry. "It's just amazing to see our pastor elected the first African-American president of the Southern Baptist Convention," she said. "To God be the glory."
Since his election earlier last week, Luter says he has had a steady flow of phone calls from people offering prayers and support. As he was checking out of a hotel in downtown New Orleans on Thursday, his cellphone rang, and on the other end was President Barack Obama. "That messed me up," Luter said jokingly from the pulpit. "How does he know my cellphone number?"
The two presidents talked about five minutes, he added. President Obama congratulated him, then asked Luter: "So what's it like to be the most popular president in America?"
Like Obama, Luter is a first, and he's keenly aware of the changes that brings. "There's a tremendous amount of pressure," Luter said, during a brief interview after the morning worship. "Anytime you are the first at anything, there are high expectations. My greatest challenge is not to mess up."
Luter said that his election is evidence of the convention's commitment to diversity, but it is not a token gesture. "The Southern Baptist Convention is open to all people of all racial and ethnic backgrounds," he explained. "This is real. It goes beyond the studies and the reports, and Fred Luter is exhibit A."
The 16-million-member SBC must have a well-thought-out plan for increasing diversity, says Bill J. Leonard, the James and Marilyn Dunn Chair of Baptist Studies at the Wake Forest University School of Divinity in North Carolina. "There must be intentionality on diversity," he said. "Luter and others must be invited to share power in denominational leadership and on the various committees."
Luter's election is an important step, but the impact of that step is what is truly important, according to Leonard. "The Gospel says, 'By their fruits you will know them,' " he said.
One of the most diverse Baptist denominations, Leonard said, is the American Baptist Churches USA. About 30 years ago, the American Baptists set quotas for their congregations to achieve diversity, Leonard said.
While quotas may not be an effective approach to increasing diversity in the predominantly white Southern Baptist Convention, the denomination must choose different ways to reach out to people of other races. "Some of the African-American churches in the SBC are dually aligned with the National Baptist Convention," Leonard said. That approach may allow the SBC to achieve more diversity and partner in ministry with other congregations without causing a huge disruption for other denominations, he added.
Luter said that he has received support from past leaders of the SBC. "I have received phone calls from each of the past presidents of the Southern Baptist Convention who still are living," he said. "They've called and asked me, 'What can we do?' I tell them to pray for me. I want to represent God well. I want to represent our church well."
Denise Stewart is a freelance writer in Alabama and a member of a congregation aligned with both the Southern Baptist Convention and the National Baptist Convention.

Current and Ex-Infinity Ward Employees Sue Activision for $125 Million
Of the 38 employees filing the lawsuit, 17 still work at Infinity Ward. The 38 employees also represent around 40% of the Modern Warfare 2 team.
"Activision engaged in this inappropriate course of conduct in an attempt to force employees of Infinity Ward to continue to work at a job that many of them did not want just so Activision could force them to complete the development, production and delivery of Modern Warfare 3," the suit says.
The plaintiffs in this new suit have argued that the suit should be consolidated with ex-Infinity Ward heads Jason West and Vince Zampella's own lawsuit against Activision.
Among the allegations in this new lawsuit is the claim that Activision told Infinity Ward staffers that if West and Zampella had not been fired, the bonuses would have been around 2.5 larger than the ones paid out at the end of March. This was perhaps intended to place fault at the feet of West and Zampella, but I would speculate that it had the opposite effect.
"Activision believes the action is without merit," responded an Activision representative. "Activision retains the discretion to determine the amount and the schedule of bonus payments for MW2 and has acted consistent with its rights and the law at all times. We look forward to getting judicial confirmation that our position is right."
It already is.
Especially since Activision has already stated that they withheld the bonuses, and will now be redistributing them to the current employees. That's basically fully admitting that there bonuses that are supposed to be paid, but weren't, and were being withheld like they were grounded or something.

VANCOUVER - Sand, surf and topless cougars cavorting on the beach - it must be Housewives time.
Still on their top-secret Mexico vacation, Mary Zilba and Christina Kiesel heat up -- and take things off -- in episode No.8 during a seaside photo shoot for Mary's new liquor Blue Tulum.
The pair gets close in barely there bikinis for some fun in the sun in - and it's all captured on film.
Remember, ladies, what happens in Mexico definitely doesn't stay there.
Reiko Mackenzie shows off her physical prowess during a test session at the Dojang studio.
After a stressful exam, which she calls "one of the hardest things she's ever done," Reiko's hard work is rewarded with a shiny new green belt - and it sure isn't Hermes.
Now home from Mexico, Christina enters the lion's den for a dinner with 'frenemy' Jody Claman.
"I'm speechless," Christina says after listening to Jody's outrageous comments about her enemy Mary, which she later denies.
So are we.
Mary and Ronnie Seterdahl Negus decide to meet for a little post-vacation chat where they bring out their claws shortly after sitting down. This battle is destined to be short-lived, however, as the two women call a truce after only a few heated words.
"As much as I sometimes want to wring your f***ing neck and I'm sure you want to wring mine . . . " Ronnie begins, "If you and I have issues from here on out, we deal with it."
"Nobody else getting in between it," Mary agrees.
A-N-D . . . they're 'friends on' again. Wow, that was easy.
With Mary and Ronnie reunited in their sisterhood, Mary looks to wrap up another ongoing conflict - Sounds like someone has a date with destiny.
Thankfully, it's a short wait as Mary and Jodi meet for a catfight-filled lunch in the very next scene.
As the women discuss the things they've said about one other - including Jody's store selling secondhand goods and Mary being psychotic - a few truths are unearthed.
"I make fun of your Botox and your fillers," Jody clarifies during a preliminary attack.
"These are my real cheeks!" Mary exclaims clearly offended.
Thank God -we have finally that cleared up!
And while one fight heats up, another fizzles. Christina meets up with Jody's daughter Mia for a few reconciliatory drinks.
"Mia's a pitbull, but she's kind of like one of the Surrey SPCA pitbulls . . . they're a little kinder than you expect," Christina says.
Yikes! We'll just take your word for it.
Just when you thought the drama was done, during a private event at The Room in the downtown Bay store, the Housewives congregate under the pretenses of some champagne sips and shopping.
"I'm not here to shop, I am here for a very important reason," Jody quickly clarifies.
Hmm, wonder what that could be. Anyone up for a battle?
And battle they do - big time. Jody and the pitbull Mia get rabid at Mary with a relentless barrage of loud, rude comments.
After making a massive scene, Christina asks the duo to leave the store - but not before they serve Mary with papers from a lawyer stemming from her 'defamatory' comments about Jody's store.
How's that for a taste of the law?
Until next week Housewives fans.
What's On Tonight for

The following is a list of the major 'Classic' Amiga models, in the order in which they were first released. These are the models launched by Commodore between 1985 and 1994 (when Commodore went bankrupt). They all use CPUs in Motorola's 680×0 family (although PowerPC accelerator cards were released for some models), and the final version of AmigaOS and Kickstart they shipped with was 3.1 (later, AmigaOS 3.5 and 3.9 were released as upgrades, but no new Kickstarts).
All were originally designed and manufactured by Commodore, although the A1200 and A4000T were also manufactured by Escom's 'Amiga Technologies' subsidiary in 1995-96. Even in early 2010 it is still possible to buy 'new old stock' of certain models, particularly A1200s and (NTSC) CD32s.
There are ongoing efforts to rebuild the Amiga. The Minimig project uses a Xilinx Spartan3 FPGA to recreate the custom chipset. A C-One can run Minimig's core. Natami aims to create a motherboard that remains compatible and shares design principles with the original Amiga while introducing some advanced features.
The following lists the machines which can run the 'next generation' Amiga-like operating systems (AmigaOS 4, MorphOS or AROS). Unless otherwise stated, all use PowerPC-based CPUs (unlike the 'Classic' Amigas which all used '68k' CPUs).

The Dolphins got a win over the Seahawks at home on Sunday afternoon and safety Jonathon Amaya went out until the wee hours of the morning celebrating the win.
There's not much to celebrate about the way the night ended for Amaya, however. NBC Miami reports that Amaya was arrested on charges of battery of a taxi driver after being picked up outside a club around 4:30 a.m.
According to the police report, Amaya promised the driver a $100 tip to take him to an area that the driver normally didn't go. During the ride, Amaya allegedly became "aggressive" and the driver returned to the spot where the ride began before telling Amaya to get out of the car. The driver told police that Amaya "leaned forward and wrapped his hands around [the driver's] neck and started choking him" and two off-duty police officers who were working at the club heard the driver yelling that Amaya was going to kill him.
Amaya has six tackles in eight games playing mostly special teams for the Dolphins in 2012. He played 16 games for the Saints last season after starting his career with the Dolphins as an undrafted free agent in 2010.

Despite an enormous loss of wealth during the Great Recession, Boston-area families and estates are expected to donate a massive sum to charities over the next half century, perhaps eclipsing $1 trillion, according to a new study commissioned by the Boston Foundation.
The report, based on research by Boston College's Center on Wealth and Philanthropy, found that the recent recession erased about $350 billion in assets that were likely to flow to charities by 2061.
Even so, a huge wave of generational wealth will change hands over the next several decades, the study found, ranging from $950 billion to $3.9 trillion, depending on how fast the economy grows.
Of that, about 42 percent will probably go to charity, according to the study. That would mean between $419 billion and $1.6 trillion designated for nonprofits over the next five decades. And increasingly, people will pass that money on while they are alive, rather than leaving behind bequests for others to manage after they die.
That's a fundamental shift in the way wealthy people have historically donated money, said John J. Havens, associate director of the philanthropy research group at Boston College. "They want to have more say about where it goes, and make sure it happens."
That's the Bill Gates and Warren Buffett approach to philanthropy, and it has been catching on over the past decade.
In particular, entrepreneurs and investors who made their own money — rather than inheriting it — are interested in being more hands-on with their giving. And for those who plan to leave their money in family foundations, they want to get a mission and responsible family members in place while they are able to oversee the efforts.
"That's a profound change,'' said Paul S. Grogan, chief executive of the Boston Foundation, which commissioned the study. "There's a new emphasis on really engaging donors. People don't want to just write a check anymore."
The new study is an updated version of research BC produced for the Boston Foundation in 2006. The foundation, a large community-based grant maker, paid for the updated version to get a sense of the impact the financial crisis had on wealth, and would have on future giving.
What the researchers found was in some ways not surprising: The very wealthy lost money but were not nearly as severely harmed in the crisis as people of more modest means. The hardest hit were the 41 percent of households in Greater Boston with a net worth of less than $100,000. Those 700,000 households saw their collective wealth plummet 76 percent in the recession, to $3.3 billion.
Debt proved to be a big burden for many of those people. The number of Boston-area households with a net worth of zero or negative swelled by 48 percent, to 244,043 in 2010, according to the study. Nationally, the number grew 41 percent, to 17.1 million.
Those figures are daunting, Grogan said, and could signal an even greater need for the wealthy to fund charities that help the poor.
The 14 percent of Greater Boston households worth $1 million or more (238,887 households) lost only about 16 percent of their wealth from 2007 to 2009, the Boston College study found. The average household in that group lost $689,000, and together, they lost $164 billion. But their resources allowed them more resilience than people of modest incomes.
The good news, Grogan said, is that those people can help solve some of the region's problems. The bad news, he noted, is the "severe inequality and declining mobility — the declining ability for people to actually live the American dream."

"Bomb cyclone" is new to me. I remember when "polar vortex" was new, but it's another terrorizing phrase. "Uncorks" would have been better 3 days ago, with its New Year's Eve evocations, but it's at least a visual image in words that goes along with the graphic, which is bright-colored, hurricanesque whorls over the Atlantic Ocean, right next to the famous cities, the cities that matter — Boston, New York, and Washington, D.C.
As for "tremendous cold," that's at least amusingly anticlimactic. What other words did they consider before landing on "tremendous"? "Huge"? Trump ruined "huge." The rapacious glutton gained ownership of it. "Humongous"? Too childish. "Brobdingnagian"? Too schoolmarmish. Colossal, elephantine, enormous, gargantuan, jumbo, mammoth, massive, monstrous, prodigious, super, super-duper, titanic, tremendous, walloping, whacking, whopping...?
Speaking of monsters....
First, a monster storm will hammer coastal locations from Georgia to Maine with ice and snow. By Thursday, the exploding storm will, in many ways, resemble a winter hurricane, battering easternmost New England with potentially damaging winds in addition to blinding snow.I'd like to say the media are turning us into snowflakes, but the one thing snowflakes shouldn't be afraid of is cold.
And how much snow are we talking? Enough to groom the ski trails?
From Norfolk to the Maryland and Delaware beaches, including much of the southern half of the Delmarva Peninsula, 3 to 6 inches of heavy snow are predicted.... To the north, Philadelphia and New York have a better chance for a coating of snow, but — unless the storm edges closer to the coast — the more significant snow should remain to their east from Atlantic City to eastern Long Island, where at least four to six inches could fall late Wednesday to late Thursday.I'd really like some good snow around here so we could get the cross-country ski trails groomed. Six inches sounds great. Remember when snow was beautiful and fun? Now, everything's a nightmare.

BOSTON (AP) — Cardinal Sean O'Malley skipped Boston College's commencement Monday to protest its decision to honor Irish Prime Minister Enda Kenny, who backs legislation to permit abortion, and O'Malley's views were echoed outside the ceremony by a few dozen anti-abortion activists.
The protesters gathered at an entrance to the stadium where Kenny gave the keynote address and received an honorary degree, with some holding signs saying it was a scandal that the Catholic school was hosting Kenny.
The bill Kenny supports allows abortion only if a doctor authorizes it to save a woman's life. But opponents say it would lead to widespread abortions because of a provision that permits it if a woman threatens suicide.
Protester C.J. Doyle of the Catholic Action League called that "the proverbial Mack truck loophole" and said Boston College's decision to honor Kenny undermines the church's anti-abortion teachings.
"What rational person can reasonably be expected to take seriously Catholic opposition to abortion when our own Catholic institutions honor someone who's trying to legalize abortion in his country?" he said.
Kenny didn't mention the controversy during his keynote address.
Afterward, Kenny told reporters the bill does nothing to change an 1861 Irish law that makes abortion a crime punishable by life in prison.
Instead, the bill "is setting out clarity and legal certainty, that is intended to save lives, not to end them," he said.
In 1992, Ireland's Supreme Court ruled abortion should be legal if doctors determine it's needed to save the woman's life. In 1992 and 2002, voters rejected two referendums to allow abortion to stop a physical threat to a woman's life, not including suicide.
The current bill is being debated following last year's death of a woman who was hospitalized at the start of a protracted miscarriage during her 17th week of pregnancy. Doctors refused her request for an abortion and she died of massive organ failure.
The bill permits a single doctor to authorize an abortion if the woman's life is in immediate danger. Two doctors must approve if a pregnancy poses a potentially lethal risk. The approval of three doctors is required if the woman is threatening suicide.
O'Malley announced he'd skip Boston College's graduation earlier this month, saying Irish bishops had concluded the bill "represents a dramatic and morally unacceptable change to Irish law," and noting that U.S. bishops have asked Catholic institutions not to honor officials who promote abortion.
Boston College spokesman Jack Dunn said Monday that Kenny' s invitation was unrelated to the controversial legislation and was offered solely because of historical ties between his country and a school founded by an Irish Jesuit to serve Irish immigrants.
He said the invitation to Kenny in no way erodes the school's anti-abortion stance.
"Boston College as a Catholic institution fully supports the church's commitment to the unborn," he said.
